Dokku is a small project put together in a few lines of Bash script, to set
up a git-push based PaaS a la Heroku. It relies on Docker to do a lot of
the heavy lifting, but it's quite an interesting little project, because it's
almost exactly like a project I had all planned out, except someone else has
already built it and it works.

To date, I've primarily kept this blog closely related to technology-related
things I've done, that aren't tied to my day job. The problem with that, is
that I haven't had much to write about in that area for a while, and my site
is looking fairly abandoned. So, I think, moving forward, this space is going
to be less about what code I'm writing or linux desktops I'm playing with, and
more about just anything at all that interests me. I've planned a few things I
want to write about, so let's see if I'll actually start writing more now.

A while back I ran into the blog of a developer who'd gone and replaced his laptop with an iPad - completely. And was still happy with his decision months on. Which got me thinking - Would it actually work?

I've done away that clumsy old database thing. Webserver too. My blog is now statically generated. What follows is a quick brain dump of my experiences getting it up and running. First up, here's the various moving parts that make the magic happen: jilcrow, Dropbox, Amazon S3, s3cmd, incron, and Disqus.
